I believe there was an entire thread about this. Initially thought to be a strategy employed only by the KC Chiefs, it was later believed that many drafted players are captains because normally only the best players on college teams are the ones to be named captains. I remember a lot of pics of various cartoon captains as well.

there is actually some decent talent going into the 4th tomorrow. Hopefully we can grab some without reaching.

I can't believe we are making comparisons to players Vinny Cerrato drafted.

Thats the general rule: If you like the guy you should take him. Your assumption that he will be there later may not come to pass: you don't know if he will be there later or not. You can ASSUME but you really don't know. If you like him and the next option available is significantly worse, then it is smarter to take him now while you can and accept the criticism for taking him "too early" vs. risking losing him because you knew he would be there later.

You're right the months of research has paid off on guys like Dennis Morris, Terrence Austin, and Selvish Capers. Why wouldn't I think every pick will pan out just like the FO hopes? I should never question Bruce & Co. If it weren't for them, I'd have to read draft magazines and look at draft websites. What a waste of time that would be. I could never get those few seconds back. I'm glad I have Bruce Almighty to base my opinions on.

[EARTHQUAKE2689]

Lamar Miller should be there by our pick in the 4th.

[BigHairedAristocrat]

Theres a difference between forming reasonable opinions and knee jerk reactions.

There are people here who's opinions I pay attention to and those I don't. Some shed insight. Others remind me of why I left extremeskins. Anyone who justifies their opinion by taking the opposite opinion to the extreme to point its ridiculousness ca t be taken seriously.

Obviously, the Redskins thought that LeRibeus was going to be drafted before their next pick and they thought he was the best interior offensive lineman left.

All of this is not going to matter in the end as long as LeRibeus plays well. Just like any other draft pick, only time will tell.

After drafting griffin, depth along the line had to be our priority. Shanahan loves competition and he's giving our interior guys (none of whom are highly acclaimed) someone to worry about.

I'd like Lamar Miller, but I'm only basing that off his Ohio State, VT, and FSU games. I haven't spent months researching and watching all his game tape, so I'll have to wait for Bruce & Co. to tell me how to think.

[diehardskin2982]

Honestly I feel like we didn't lose anything picking LeRibeus in the 3rd. I thought gaurd was a huge need for us Polk, Rainey and Thomas are still available tomorrow.
